Astoria, Queens, New York
What a neighborhood! Beyond a doubt, one of NY's most colorful. While no longer a majority of
the population, Greek presence is still very much in evidence, as are the cultures of countless other countries,
from Pakistani to Puerto Rican. The areas of Astoria Park, Broadway and Ditmars are our
among our favorites, and the inspiration for much of the setting for our
SOFIE METROPOLIS mystery series. We visit often so be on the lookout for us!
